ath9k: AR9287 device with little endian eeprom doesn't work on powerpc

[Bas Vermeulen <bvermeul@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

I have slotted a 300 Mbps Wireless N PCI Express Adapter into my 
PowerMac G5, and it failed
to initialize the driver with an error complaining about the EEPROM.

I disabled the line reading ah->ah_flags |= AH_NO_EEP_SWAP; in 
ath9k_of_init(), and this made my card show up and start working correctly.

Is there a better way of doing this? If not, what would be the best way 
to allow byte-swapping the eeprom on big endian machines?
